Theodore Boone, Kid Lawyer

by:  John Grisham

A perfect murder
A faceless witness
A lone courtroom champion knows the truth
And he is only 13 years old

Not all kids want to have the same job as both their parents do when they grow up.  But Theodore Boone does.  Theodore loves the law and spends as much time as he can in court watching trials.  He is only in 8th grade, but all of his classmates come to Theodore for legal advice because he really knows his stuff.

When Theodore learns of a witness to a murder that nobody else knows about, is he in over his head?...  Probably so...
